Afternoon, everyone. We may have a thunderstorm.

I was helping Elen sew cloth bags for a service project, but the sewing machine has gone on strike. I’m not sure what’s wrong with it, but it’s done the same thing in the past, and I don’t remember how I fixed it. Maybe picking it up and shaking it would work.

I have two sewing machines, neither of which work, both of which will cost me $75 + to fix.

A wombat would be welcome about now. ;o]

Sunny and hot here. Well, not that hot but enough I got a bit dehdryated.

Photobucket This B-17 was in town this week, so I took the afternoon off and went to see it. Learned there's a new "Heritage Flight Center" (or some such there), with mostly WWII planes (plus Rutan's spaceship). The interesting element is that all are in flying order with one exception: a Messerschmitt rocket plane.

They had a V-1 in excellent shape and interestingly, a piloted V-1.
